    Saturday Meanderings

    ByMary Crozier August 9, 2025August 9, 2025

    A bit of a late start with writing and posting today. The past few days have been consumed by research and presentations for three zoning hearings—more facts and formalities than the lovely, fun, and creative pursuits I usually enjoy. But the zoning cases went in our favor and I am now back up at our…

Life does go on, but let’s remember the real…

    Secrets to a Delicious Homemade Peach Pie

    ByMary Crozier September 30, 2024October 1, 2024

    There are two times during the year where peaches are center stage. One is in May, when our peach tree sheds its fuzzy juicy fruit. The other is in September/October when the famous Utah peaches are ripe and available for purchase. Fortunately we have connections and I just received a 32 lb. box of tree…
